TD Ameritrade Park Omaha

Fostering Civic Pride and Community Connectivity

For more than 60 years, college baseball has crowned its national champion at the NCAA Men's College World Series (CWS) in Omaha, Nebraska. To keep the CWS in Omaha, the city needed to build a new stadium or invest significant dollars renovating the existing one. HDR, in association with Populous, assisted the Mayor's selection committee with pre-design services including studies for the renovation of the existing stadium, the evaluation of eight potential new stadium sites, and programming and conceptual design of the new stadium option.

Design Embodies Experiences

The stadium design is based on the development of experiences: those of the student athlete for participation in the competition, those of the fans and patrons visiting multiple games throughout each season, and the development of the community experience — what the stadium will contribute to the CWS event and its relationship to the city of Omaha.

Unique in capacity, purpose and character, the Park enhances the city's reputation as one of America's great sports communities. Designed to fit within the context of the entertainment quarter and as a gateway to downtown, the stadium is intended to serve as a catalyst to future development.
